The best restaurants in Cork city council

10/01/2026: I just popped by after meaning to try this for a while. Without doubt, the best pie I've ever had. Maybe memories of the pie shop in Birmingham share a place in my heart. I will definitely be back as this was just so good. The young lady who served me was so genky and sweet too.

09/07/2026: Lovely food reasonably priced and very friendly staff 😋

18/06/2026: Generous portions, soup of the day. Vegetarian options (maybe vegan as well - vegetable curry)

24/06/2026: Always clean, staff superb, v friendly.

21/06/2026: Excellent in the mornings if you want a hot lunch. Very convenient hours.

12/07/2026: This was the best food I ate in Cork. The aroma of the food wafts into the street as you are passing by. On a previous occasion it was too busy because it's a popular spot. We requested for the dishes to be made spicy & it was on point👌. Fresh ingredients, delicious flavors and served hot. The mango lassi & mango juice was refreshing. The servers were very attentive. If I'm ever in the city again, I will definitely be dining here.

09/07/2026: We just had dinner at this restaurant. It was fantastic, the food was delicious, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We were so glad we came here.

24/07/2026: Great spot, love the carvery on a sunday. Good spot for anything including a match.

27/06/2026: The perfect cafe for something healthy for breakfast. It’s not too expensive. I had poached eggs on sourdough with bacon and tomato and a cupa tea! It was lovely.

02/06/2026: Ash was awesome here. Food and coffee drinks were stellar. When back in Cork, we will definitely come here again.

31/03/2026: Just had a wonderful break at the Montenotte, room was very comfortable and everything needed was available. Breakfast in the panorama lounge was delicious with beautiful views of the city. Drinks in the night overlooking the lights of Cork is wonderful. Staff are very attentive and friendly. The short walk downhill is easy to access the city and it's a very short uphill taxi back. We'll certainly return

25/03/2026: Off busy narrow street, so have a good navigation so you don't miss the entry like we did, as it was a bear to get back here. Otherwise, this has been the best hotel we have stayed while in Ireland so far. The staff and hotels attention to details are top notch. You should not be disappointed!

29/03/2026: Absolutely beautiful food and brilliant staff.. Great value for money which is rare these days. Great portions and the place is spotless..

19/02/2026: (Traducido por Google) Muy ocupado hoy Pero vale la pena la espera (Original) Very busy today But well worth the wait

08/07/2026: Very nice restaurant in a beautiful setting 🤩. Very friendly staff.

23/06/2026: Ate here while staying at the hotel and we had such a great meal here - fantastic service from both Anita and Stanfer. They have a separate vegetarian / vegan menu that isn’t large but is very tasty! Ambiance was wonderful and overall dining here was just a joy.

14/09/2025: If you are willing to spend a bit more than the usual price for a breakfast, you can have a truly delicious experience here. Like chef-level type of experience. Not to mention that the place is spacious and luminous, the views are fantastic, the service is top-notch, and you can have a lovely walk through the gardens (and the nun's cemetery too). And learn some history.

11/09/2025: A magnificent location, very refined cuisine, and attentive staff. Try it without moderation.

04/09/2025: So many savory options! Best Italian I have had since going vegan. Got there, given an hr wait, went nexdoor til she called us over earlier than expected, and she waited a little extra while we finished our pints. Kind service staff. Loved the fresh ingredients. My pesto ravioli with sweet potatoes was fantastic. The linguine were perfectly al dente and we could see them being made. Saved room for dessert, the strawberry hill was delicious. All so perfectly balanced, really. Try the appetizers! We got the socca farinata. My Omni bf and I (vegan) thought this was some of the best food we've had. Cozy, romantic, welcoming, & affordable, too.

31/08/2025: Love love love!!!! I'm dairy free and it was a delight.

28/05/2026: The nicest place you can go, practically in the center of Cork. Good coffee, delicious fruitcake, excellent music, unbeatable service, and a covered terrace where you can smoke. The owner is a great guy. Ideal for a relaxing break.

19/02/2026: Got a ham and cheese toastie which was delicious. The food and coffee is cheap but lovely. The owner is a gentleman, can’t recommend this place enough.

14/06/2026: So so good! We've used catering from Loving Salads twice now for two family events & it is always delicious! The owner, Jason, is very easy to deal with, making the process super simple. He provides such wonderful, vibrant food, it's presented beautifully and looks so enticing! Looking forward to using Loving Salads in the future.

20/05/2026: We used loving salads for our daughter’s communion at the weekend & I can honestly say we were blown away. The quality of the produce, the value for money, the flavours & presentation were all flawless. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending their home catering menu for any event.

03/07/2026: I've been going to the beer garden for 15 years now, and i just want to say, the staff are always fantastic, but I must say I have noticed a drop off in standards when it comes to there food in the last few months, , it is definitely not what it used to be , I would be the 1st person to always recommend the beer garden to people who haven't ate there before, I definitely wont be recommending anyone after todays visit, ive had enough, I can honestly say I probably won't be going there again for food, i hate to admit it, but the quality is just not what it used to be,

31/05/2026: Lovely food, big portions and very tasty, would recommend!
